Lord of Rot

Chapter 186 The Legend of Water Monster

In the early morning, the sun passed over the Pig Ridge Valley, and half of the bright red head poked out from the top of the mountain.

As the sun shone, two carriages, one behind the other, surrounded by a dozen soldiers, walked towards the outside of the Porcupine Territory.

Residents lined the streets to see each other off.

That was Baron Leach's carriage.

What's a little weird is that the huge yellow-red scale monitor lizard is lying on the carriage, gently shaking its head, but no one is aware of its existence.

Occasionally, someone would take a look and immediately look away.

In a strangely warm atmosphere, the convoy drove away.

"My lord is the kindest lord I have ever seen."

Grant watched Li Qi leave the carriage and sighed: "He never pursues enjoyment, but thinks all night long and invents many magical things for the Porcupine Collar."

"Yes." Qiao, who was standing aside and saluting with the same attention, nodded in agreement.

For other nobles, it is completely normal for them to have a small party every three days and a big party every five days.

There are always various reasons for banquets, dances, and old times.

Look at Crowe Camel, he keeps drinking and bragging every day.

The nobles are already the top people in the world, and all they have to do every day is think about how to enjoy themselves.

But Baron Reacher was completely different. He had never held a banquet. The few celebrations he had were all porcupines together. In their eyes, Reacher was like an ascetic monk in a monastery. All he cared about every day was building a house. Paving roads, farming, and raising pigs.

Care about food and vegetables, the work of blacksmiths, brickyards, carpenters, vegetable market operations, brewing, honey, soap... and so on.

No noble would like to do this.

Some knight lords in small villages would rather starve all the people in their territory to death, or initiate "just plunder" on their own, but they would never care about the lowly cultivation of food.

Land means humbleness.

It has even happened many times in history that a certain lord asked the knights to farm the land, and then the angry knights rebelled against the lord and killed him.

Just like nobles only eat food on the ground, they will never eat food growing underground.

There are a few farmers who secretly grow potatoes, but they are not allowed to do so. Every field belongs to the nobles, and you can grow whatever you are told. If no food grows, you will starve to death. It's as simple as that.

But Li Qi doesn't have so many requirements. He is very keen on trying delicious food and has a brain full of delicious recipes.

Aren’t mashed potatoes delicious? Occasionally frying some French fries and sprinkling some salt and pepper can bring you a whole afternoon of happiness.

Therefore, Grant and others were very surprised when they saw that Li Qi decided to leave the Porcupine Territory.

Your Excellency, are you finally ready to go out for a walk and do something that a noble gentleman should do? I feel so relieved.

The carriage rocked forward.

Li Qi had no idea that he was such a "noble" person in the eyes of his men.

get together?

What's the point of a group of nobles having a silver party?

His family knew his own affairs, and after challenging his weaknesses, Li Qi understood that he probably couldn't pass the beauty test, so he should stay away.

And how interesting it is to build infrastructure for farming. The Porcupine Territory of 200 people who had no food or clothing last year has grown into a territory of more than 2000 people in one year. Everyone has food to eat, everyone has a job, the people are rich, and the territory is strong. , that kind of joy of harvest, isn’t it more interesting than opening a bank party?

In the eyes of Baron Li Qi, watching his territory grow step by step brings an unparalleled sense of accomplishment.

His destination this time was Burning City, the huge city attached to the volcano.

As early as in Guy's lifetime memories, Li Qi had developed a strong interest in the Round Table. A dozen extraordinary people gathered together, and perhaps there was a force similar to Shanzhang Fort behind each of them.

"Like Guy, are these people lawful evil or chaotic evil?"

Unfortunately, Guy only attended one roundtable and did not understand the party itself.

Li Qi was fully prepared for this action.

He only asked a small number of soldiers to follow him, leading two carriages.

On one of the carriages lay a ghoul monitor lizard.

However, it had a strange object [Invisible Pot] upside down on its head. After many attempts, it was ensured that the ghoul monitor lizard could completely "disappear". At the same time, Li Qi also used his mental power to control the ghoul, otherwise he would They will all forget that this guy exists.

With such a huge monster lying on the carriage, no one felt anything was wrong.

Strange objects are so magical and charming. Li Qi is very interested in the appearance of strange objects, but there is no detailed record of the birth of strange objects, and the occasional vague text has no reference value.

At Longship Castle, the 'stone man' ghoul Nils was left to act accordingly. The extraordinary ghouls Aina and Guy also went to the gathering place after receiving Li Qi's order.

They will take a ferry to go south in Shuijiandi. It may seem like a detour, but taking a boat can save a lot of time.

……

pier.

A large ferry docked.

The ghoul monitor lizard put its paws on the ferry and wanted to climb on.

However, after the ship carried people, carriages, cargo, etc., plus a super big guy like it, it became too much and gradually sank. The people on the ship only felt strange, but they didn't know why the ship was flooded, and it was about to sink. .

Li Qi had no choice but to quickly control the corpse monitor lizard to get into the water, and the boat was lifted up in the water.

"Sir, this..."

"Ahem!" Li Qi coughed twice and ordered: "Hurry and help scoop out the water."

After a lot of work, the ferry finally started moving. Under the ferry, the ghoul monitor lizard followed closely like a water monster.

They still had several more days to sail.

During this period of time, Li Qi could only focus on two things, controlling the ghoul monitor lizard to swim below.

After all, Baron Li Qi did not fight an uncertain battle. He accidentally understood the situation of the Round Table Conference and guessed that a conflict would occur, and the probability of a conflict was very high.

If this is the case, then you must gather all the extraordinary power you can use around you.

……

Longboat Castle, study.

Mrs. Jie Lin touched her slightly bulging belly.

Without the monkey family behind the scenes, Shuijian Land has gained a rare peace, and everything is recovering in an orderly manner.

And with the money from Shanzhang Fort and the "selfless help" of the craftsmen, the speed of recovery is visible to the naked eye.

The water stream land is not a barren land like the Porcupine Territory. With a little management, it can bring huge wealth.

Guy told Mrs. Jie Lin two days ago that he would be away for a while.

Without the eyesore, her mood became much better again.

Looking at the recent news about Shuijiandi, Mrs. Jielin removed her hand from her stomach.

It read: "Baron Porcupine boarded the ship at Shuijian Pier, preparing to go to Burning City."

After all, the relationship between the two is shady, and it is difficult to say that they are affectionate.

Everyone got what they needed, but what Li Qi did next gave Mrs. Jielin a great sense of security.

He never thought of it as just a night of fun.

"You should be worried about me, so you deliberately took a detour to come here." She mentally found an excuse for Li Qi's behavior of "deliberately taking a detour to the water stream."

The violent action at Shanzhang Fort some time ago was really scary. She thought it was because Li Qi didn't trust Guy very much and felt that she should come over to see it in person. However, she was afraid that their relationship would arouse suspicion, so she took a detour.

Her sister Yilin has warned her many times, but Li Qi helped her twice when she was in crisis. How could she guarantee that she would not fall?

Knowing that the other person has come to Shuijiandi once, even if they don't meet, it is a tacit "encounter".

It can be regarded as a small tacit understanding between the two.

Mrs. Jie Lin's mood became better and better.

She picked up another piece of news: "In the past two days, water monsters have appeared in the water channels of Shuijian. Many boats were touched and almost overturned."

Thank you [Cao Muxiao] for the 100 reward, best wishes and thanks.
